Quantitative immunoprecipitation of RRP1B selectively enriches molecular complexes containing 60S (RPL) proteins and pre-60S ribosomal subunit processing proteins. (A) Design of a typical quantitative SILAC IP experiment. (B) Real hits are distinguished by their high SILAC ratios (>1), which shift them from the bell curve distribution of contaminants (ratio of ∼1). Plotting log SILAC ratio versus relative peptide intensity highlights the RPLs and pre-60S processing proteins purified with both endogenous nuclear RRP1B (C) and GFP-tagged nucleolar PP1γ (D).
